Welcome to the nerve center of open talent.
Our Services
Client Enablement
By using ‘open talent’, companies can have access to the world’s best minds. Many see that need. Few know how to make it happen.
Open Assembly helps enterprises build the networks and systems that will transform their talent strategies.
Blended Workforce Strategies
Our consultants work with business leaders to develop new and dynamic approaches to workforce planning. That allows them to add capability, to create scale without adding headcount, and to move cost from fixed to variable.
External Talent Cloud Models
Platforms offer access to vast new constituencies of workers. We help organizations find and select expert independent talent. This can come from one or a select few platforms. It enables clients to reduce time to revenue and enables scalability and elasticity.
Open Innovation Platforms
Open innovation can exponentially increase the number of solution providers. We help clients build networks of potential collaborators. We co-create challenges and find the right communities from which to source new and novel ideas.
Internal Talent Clouds
Many organizations miss a trick by failing to see what they already have. We help clients catalog enterprise-wide talent and capabilities. We enable internal mobility by using digital tools to matching skills with client demand.
Security, IP protection, and historic internal processes are all barriers to adoption. They cause anxiety. We help companies solve those problems. We do this by creating Centers of Excellence, finding the right digital tools, and sharing best practice.
This gives companies confidence that their blended workforces are secure, vetted, compliant and quality assured.
Open Assembly has conceived, designed and implemented an open talent access model that has become a critical part of how we deliver services.
